Welcome to the Family: Chef from Naples (2023) — watch online on iFILM — is a Russian crime comedy directed by Vladimir Zinkevich. Mob boss Leonid Boytsov (Vladimir Sychev) is used to settling other people's business. He was not expecting his own affairs to unravel over a restaurant deal.
A local restaurateur asks Leonid to handle a dispute with his Italian partner, Chef Giacomo (Alessandro Demcenko) — the man took the money and never opened the place. Leonid buys the restaurateur out, befriends Giacomo, and grandly opens Vesuvius. That's when the trap snaps shut. Svetlana Kamynina and Kristina Stroiteleva round out the cast as the people left picking up the pieces.
The film's tagline — "His signature dish is served cold" — is the one thing here that needs no explanation. It plays as a light crime caper in an Italian wrapper, and the punchline hits hardest once you figure out who was cooking the whole time.
